WLED_LAN

The WLED_LAN project is a little controller for the WS2812 LEDs, based around the WT31-ETH01 Controller.

It consists of the controller itself, four spring clamps (one for power in and three for power and data out to the LEDs), and some other complementary components like a programming port, a power switch connector, and so on.

After ordering the PCB through JLCPCB, I assembled the PCB, programmed the WT32-ETH01 through an ESP8266 with WLED (credits to Aircookie for creating it). After connecting everything, I plugged in the power and was happy to see everything working. The three data pins for the LED strips are connected to ports 2, 4, and 12, as well as a power and GND clamp for each of the LED strips. There are also 3 extra connectors. J1 is a jumper for putting the controller in programming mode. H2 is for programming, and the last connector is for the unused GPIO pins.

All files, like the wiring diagram, PCB layout, and so on, can be found on my OSHW Lab profile, and the software for the controller is on the WLED website.
